bookings are open now for our workshops in schools throughout New zealand.
We offer a number of options for schools and communities of learning and are happy to custom design workshops to suit your children's needs. We have also recently got to know and love ZOOM as a way of presenting Writers' Studios.
But wait, there's more...
We can also provide writers to speak with classes, do readings or perform poetry. Just ask.
Please email us for availability and costs.
Our Workshops in Schools Programme is supported by Rātā Foundation.
TESTIMONIALS FROM TEACHERS
"The programme provided by The School for Young Writers is outstanding. Groups of children with recognized talent in this area are selected to work with the tutors on a comprehensive writing programme. We have seen these children achieve at a higher level, with assessment data to support this analysis."
- Ginnie Warren, St Albans School
"We value this service highly, not only for those students fortunate enough to attend but also for the spin-off effects on other students once these children come back into the classroom."
- Ann Edmundson, St Bernadette's School
"I see a huge need for this type of teaching in our region, where students can be rather insular, so by having an outside facilitator, it provides another avenue to switch students on to writing."
- Joy Baker, Runanga School
